| Chateau/Producer: | M. Chapoutier | | Wine Name: | La Sizeranne Hermitage | | Country: | France | | State: | Rhone | | AOC: | Hermitage | | Region: | Hermitage | | Wine Score: | 87 | | Notes: | I know, I know. This is supposed to be a really impressive wine, especially at that price. But it just wasn't to my taste. The color was a lovely red brick, fading to orange at the edges. The nose is medium strength, black cherries and raspberries. This wine had, to me, a lot of tannins. Even giving it an hour and a half to breathe, the tannins were still overpowering. You could tell there was good flavor underneath, if the tannins would ever let it out. If you like your wine with a bit of a tannic edge, this would be perfect for you. | | Tasting Date: | 2006-02-27 | | Varietal: | Syrah | | Price US$: | 100.00 |
